Pros

Move fast, you're able to implement what you can or have the desire to. It feels like the roof is as high as you're willing to work. Great place to grow

Cons

Office is decent but not the fanciest

Pros

Some nice and competent people work there but the rest of the perks are geared toward children and they will treat you as such.

Cons

Pretty much everything. They have a tech stack built on a 4+ year dead PHP version. I led the project to upgrade to a less dead version and added local development. In 2018 this company was (and still is) using a single server development structure. The only benefit that came with this in 2000 was consistent environments but the system architects can not keep the two systems aligned so you spend hours/days/weeks dealing with 'it works on dev but fails on production'. It's absolutely unacceptable. The company hires juniors and trains them to work on their failing product, they do not invest in the people or their careers. Working here will not prepare you for any real development career. The two seniors on my team did not know PHP and commonly rewrote internal PHP functions. They also had a propensity to treat less knowledgeable employees in condescending ways while telling them complete falsehoods. It's the absolute worst job I have ever had in the tech industry. If you care about tech in any way, stay far away from this place.

Pros

booj has a super welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. We do multiple company outings each month, and each has around 30 attendants - these events are always a complete blast. The open-door policy and acceptance of managers and partners allows any staff member to really have an impact on processes here. I LOVE being able to bring my dog to work, it brightens up my day having all the dogs around! They are now more controlled so we rarely have "doggy accidents". Overall, I love the people and culture at booj and wouldn't trade it for anything. Awesome place to work.

Cons

Hours are long when big projects are happening
